Worship at Christ Church centers on the Holy Eucharist, also called Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper.
Every Sunday, the parish gathers to hear Scripture, pray, receive the sacrament, sing, and be sent back into the world in the name of Christ. The liturgy is traditional and beautiful, yet it is meant for real people with real questions, burdens, hopes, and joys.
Book of Common Prayer worship
The Book of Common Prayer gives worship its shape. It carries the congregation through confession, praise, Scripture, sermon, creed, prayers, peace, Eucharist, and blessing. Visitors do not need prior experience; the service bulletin provides guidance throughout.
Preaching and prayer
Christ Church values preaching that is evangelical in its confidence that the Gospel is good news, and thoughtful in its willingness to engage life honestly. Prayer is offered for the church, the world, those who suffer, those who rejoice, and those entrusted to God’s care.
Serving in worship
